I want this blog to be full of positivity, especially for the other moms and kids that do what we do. So I will be featuring kids who show that amazing spirit and passion. Also I will also be combining a digital magazine called Minimag that will highlight their achievements.
I am so very excited to announce our very first trio!

A little background BK (Before Kids)
Nonki used to be a fashion stylist in London & Paris.
After her marriage, her family has been living in Shanghai. Due to a spousal visa issue, Nonki now expresses her creativity and love of fashion with styling her kids.
Mom story, we can all Relate
When I shoot 2 kids together, it takes much longer.
The kids notice the time I focus with each of them. When Manon is shooting well, Oki may get annoyed, and vice versa. So I give the kids little bribes. I will give them ice cream or promise extra time on Nintendo. It’s also easier to shoot only 1 kid for photos, but I love to do styling for 2 kids, so these little bribes are necessary.
